Image description

British and Canadian troops are moving into the liberated areas. The southern part of the city was not liberated until 18 July, when the Canadian 3rd Division advanced through it. By the end of the battle, the civil population of Caen had fallen from 60,000 to 17,000. The destruction of the city during the Allied bombings caused much resentment.
